Clinical and Polysomnographic Sleep Features in Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Abstract

1I read with great interest the article titled ‘Tracing the relationships between sleep disturb-ances and symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome’ by Moradian Shahrbabaki et al. The authors con-ducted an interesting cross-sectional study about the correlation between irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and sleep quality which may also apply to other sleep features.
